Authors

We work together with one of the leading publishers in Germany

Publisher

"How Blockchain will change the German economy"

How BLOCKCHAIN will change the German

economy

“Blockchain technology will become a key technology for the next ten to twenty years that will change Germany decisively.”


Plutoneo

Reducing inefficiencies in asset management through blockchain technology

› Accompaniment of the client in the development of a startup in the area of asset management based on blockchain technology

› Traditional asset management is characterized by inefficiencies of e.g. many intermediaries, slow settlement and high cost; inefficiencies that could be solved by the blockchain technology

› Especially illiquid assets can be more cost-efficient through the application of blockchain technology

› Focus of the Frankfurt School Blockchain Center

activities are the application of blockchain technology, development of the platform, market research, provision of legal support and the business case


Blockpool.eu - Horizon2020

Pooling SME adoption and deployment of blockchain and other DLTs

› Blockpool is a project funded by the European Commission as part of the Horizon2020 INNOSUP programme

› Starting in February 2019 the aim of this project is to

accelerate European SMEs uptake and deployment of blockchain and other DLTs (BDLT)

› A multi-sectorial deployment pool will be established,

consisting of 25 SMEs which will receive multi-level support by the consortium

› The Frankfurt School Blockchain Center will help to

› develop a comprehensive understanding of the European BDLT ecosystem (mapping of relevant initiatives and specialists, undertaking a BDLT Risk Assessment and a regulatory analysis)

› formulate recommendations to intermediaries, policy makers and regulators

Society for international cooperation (GIZ)

Facilitating public access to the financial services ecosystem through digital solutions in Jordan

› The objective of this consultancy mission was to provide strategic advice and capacity building to project stakeholders and DFS industry players on the application of blockchain technology in financial services

› Consultancy project › On-site mission in Amman, Jordan (Aug 2018) › Clients include GIZ, Central Bank of Jordan, World

Food Programme, Digital Financial Service Council


Consensys

Blockchain-based certificates to create a reliable verification ecosystem

› The verification and authentication of a certificate takes time, is expensive, and annoying. Applicants and examiners suffer from this as well as the issuers of the certificates, such as citizen centers or universities

› They must regularly fight against forged certificates

and the associated reputational damage › Moreover, the recipients do not have full control

over the diplomas and certificates obtained

› The Frankfurt School of Finance & Management is the first university in Germany to offer blockchain-based certificates in cooperation with Consensys

› With this new technology, it is possible to create fraud-resistant certificates and statements, including an easy and digital verification process


Aareal Bank

Comparative analysis of four DLTs

› In cooperation with Aareal Bank, the Frankfurt School Blockchain Center conducted a thorough analysis on Hyperledger fabric, Ethereum, R3 Corda and Stellar Quasar by generating a framework consisting of various business requirements and scoring the technologies based on their satisfaction of these characteristics

› The study furthermore identified possible fields of application for each DLTs

› The examined DLTs span a continuum of high flexibility in different aspects as well as generic platform solutions for literally any kind of application


Proof-of-Concept on trading loans

Ethereum can facilitate trading loans

› While many different institutions work on the settlement part of trading financial instruments, few have looked into the advantages blockchain can offer for trading of loans

› The Frankfurt School Blockchain Center

created a proof-of-concept to show the following advantages:

› Easier bondholder communication while

keeping holders anonymous › Anonymous BWICs and AWICs while

trust is established through distribution using the technology layer

› Smart contracts enable the inclusion of

fiat currencies into the transaction flow


Study on patent ownership of crypto currency-related technologies

› The Frankfurt School Blockchain Center and the patent law firm KNH Patentanwälte conducted a joint study on patent ownership rights of crypto currency-related technologies

› Analysis of patents filed in the area of

blockchain and crypto currencies › Core technology cannot be protected due to

open source › But increasingly strong patent activity for

various further facets of related technologies › Mostly US financial companies file patents
